This has been the most difficult challenge for me. Some members seem to do very well recruiting and getting the PSA's to commit. It seems to be a combination of factors that lead to success. Here is a list I have complied for myself to try and achieve this goal.
1. Do advertising that gives you a better way to succeed. If you can possibly afford some paid ads, the people who respond to them seem to commit better.
2. Join every kind of social media you can, and set up a method of automatically contacting them regularly with some kind of information about you with SFI and TC wove into the mix. Use an auto-responder for this kind of messaging, the same people don't belong to everything so if you set up a universal message and send it everywhere different people will see it.
3. Use Skype, Google and any other way to contact them in person if you have a phone number.
4. Use webinars and conference calling.
5. Send a daily message or ecard for the first few days so that they know you are serious in your willingness to be helpful to them.
6. Answer any message from them as soon as you can.
7. Recognize and acknowledge any new achievement that you can. Follow them on their FB and Linked in pages and other social media. Comment whenever you can to whatever they do. Nothing is ever too small to acknowledge. People like to be noticed and validated.
8. Keep your messages short and use common words that translate better for those who are non English speaking. Sending more short and to the point messages get read better and are easier to respond to.
9. Congratulate them in the forum and on their personal social media pages whenever you can.
10. Always, always be helpful and mindful of them and their needs. If they aren't logging in, try to find out the problem and come up with a tip if you can. Let them know that they don't have to do all of SFI in one log in. They can do it in spurts if they are using a cell phone.
These are what I plan to work diligently this new year. I plan to make this the year SFI explodes for me. Last year was a personal bummer, and SFI suffered because of it.
